Best Supporting Actor? edit

I had always believed that he was at least nominated for BSA in Song Without End, but I can find no reference for this. Who am I confusing him with? JackofOz 01:25, 25 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

No one... since Jacobi has never been nominated for anything, and neither was the film you mentioned. :) Mad Jack O'Lantern 20:08, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Well, it did win an Oscar for Best Music Score, so it must have been nominated for that one. Btw, this must be the most drawn-out conversation on Wikipedia: 3 contributions in each of 3 years. :) JackofOz 05:32, 7 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Voice inspiration for Dr. John Zoidberg edit

Latest comment: 4 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Under the Personal Life/Death section of the Lou Jacobi article, it states that Lou Jacobi was the inspiration for the Futurama character Dr. John Zoidberg. However Billy West himself has stated on an NPR appearance that the voice was actually inspired by both Jacobi and also Toastmaster General George Jesse. It's listed as reference #1 on the Zoidberg article. I'm putting this info here, until I can be certain how to edit and add the reference to the main Lou Jacobi article without messing it up.

I think I got it right, the reference notations appear to be correct, and the links in the reference also work.
